I reread my last post and realized my iPhone put in "it's" instead of "its" and I wanted to stab my own eye out. Also @jholler25 that blog is HILARIOUS! The Brenda post about the lingerie pictures was so classic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane/page/2#post-246409 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:48:05 +0000 mrs. wagon 246409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just wanted to say I'm dying laughing </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246407 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:47:20 +0000 cyndistar3 246407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cowgirl: Well don't feel too uncool, in my experience it is only the super uncool forever alone type of people that do it to this extent! You know, the type of person that even if they did send a personal message you would pretent you didn't read it... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246398 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:42:00 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 246398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyndistar3: i feel so uncool. i've never even seen "hmu". no one must want me to hit them up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246392 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:39:38 +0000 cyndistar3 246392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate when people feel the need to add "hmu" at the end of every single facebook post. Obviously if people wanted to talk to you they would have "hit you up" by now! The other thing that makes me crazy for no good reason is any mouth sounds (other than talking, obviously). If I can hear people chewing and slurping you can count on me sitting there mentally bashing my head in with a stick. And there is nothing I hate more than the heavy breathing/ smacking combo. I have been known to get up and leave the room when people eat chips :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246371 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:34:22 +0000 PrincessBaby 246371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cowgirl: Bahahaha!!! </p> <p>@photojane: Did you see the BF tattoos?

The grammar/spelling/punctuation/everything is so atrocious, i can barely understand most of the posts. </p> <p>@Mrs. Cowgirl: i hate misplaced apostrophes too! argh!</p> <p>@jholler25: supposably!! hahaha, it is SO irritating! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246318 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:05:53 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 246318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: me too!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246313 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:04:41 +0000 PrincessBaby 246313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I think when people say "supposably" instead of supposedly, I die a little bit on the inside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246310 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 21:03:59 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 246310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: Oh. my. gosh. I've seen the "walla!" before and it makes my eyes bleed.</p> <p>@mrs. bird: irregardless KILLS me. and spelling mistakes like "defiantly" for "definitely". gahhh!</p> <p>generally, bad grammar drives me NUTS! i'm no grammar expert by any means, but c'mon people, if you've gone through the third grade, you should be able to keep your "there" "their" and "they're"s straight. same with "your" and "you're"s. SERIOUSLY.</p> <p>oh, and this one is a little nitpick-y, but i don't like it when people add an apostrophe and an 's' after their last name to indicate their family. for example, it's "We're the Smiths." not the "Smith's"! </p> <p>okay, rant over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-246288 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 20:56:53 +0000 Meridian 246288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These are all so hilarious to read!!

I'm like, dude, my rice doesn't need it's own bag.</p> <p>@JessLC: My friend was trying to set me up with a guy and the night we met, I used the word "spartan" and he was like "Psssh... You use big words." and THAT'S how I knew THAT wouldn't work!</p> <p>@Coco Bee: Oh yes yes yes on #3! It's like, how do you forget this? It's just like driving. People do it in the mall, too, and it makes me all ragey! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245827 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:24:11 +0000 PrincessBaby 245827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: WEIRD!!!!</p> <p>@HeatherlovesKenny: Why do people CARE that other people raise their kids differently???? I can accept that everyone has a different way of doing things, and I can't imagine criticizing what works for another parent, as long as the child isn't being abused. And hey - I always joke that we were beaten as children...That's what worked for my parents - I got spanked with a belt, a hanger, whatever was handy at the time. And now people get criticized all the time for spanking. I see a lot of kids that could use a good spanking!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245814 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:21:12 +0000 HLK208 245814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: Hate #4. Come on people!! Be courteous! When I was 35 weeks pregnant, I was pushing DS in the stroller out of Barnes and Noble and I was struggling keeping the door open while pushing him through yet some guy went through the door as if I was holding it FOR HIM! And he didn't say a word. I shouted out "you're welcome" and he kept walking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245799 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:16:54 +0000 MsLipGloss 245799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@EEH: I would totally pay extra to find a bagger who doesn't (seemingly) go out of their way to bruise my produce (dooood - I spent precious time picking the unbruised apples, yo!) and who doesn't throw my cupcakes around so that most of the frosting ends up on the top/sides of the container. *lesigh* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245790 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:14:14 +0000 HLK208 245790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: all of those bother me too but the gym one made me laugh the most! Reasons why I want a home gym some day!!</p> <p>Lately, my biggest complaint is also FB related...a FB moms group to be specific (I can only see it because a few of my "friends" post there) and they say awful things about mom's who vaccinate their children and who use the CIO method. Ugh. I think moms need support with whatever they choose to do...parenting is hard enough without having random people scold you for doing what you think is best.</p> <p>ETA: I guess it's not totally a pet peeve but it does annoy me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245775 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:10:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 245775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: bahahaha! I love it.</p> <p>1) Spelling. Similar to what @mrs. bird: said - I cannot stand it when words are spelled incorrectly, and I will actually correct people. </p> <p>2) People who crack their knuckles. It's just gross, ok?</p> <p>3) People who walk on the LEFT side of the sidewalk/grocery aisle/etc. Good grief. </p> <p>4) When men don't hold open a door for me - I'm talking about, I'm going IN right as they are coming OUT - it would be NO inconvenience for them to just HOLD the stupid door- especially when I have a baby/stroller. It's SO freakin' rude.</p> <p>5) When I go into a store/restaurant/other customer service establishment and the employee is on the phone and ignores me. </p> <p>6) When I go shopping and I am not greeted as I come in the store. I used to be a mgr at a retail store and we had very high standards for customer service - so I suppose I unfairly expect stellar service; but at least greet your customers!</p> <p>@sorrycharlie: hahah! I totally love the sound of heels.</p> <p>@sorrycharlie: @jholler25: @Running Elley: Oh don't even get me started on facebook. There is unspoken internet etiquette that the majority of our generation (and the one below us) has totally missed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-random-pet-peeves-that-dont-hurt-anything-but-drive-you-insane#post-245772 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 19:09:16 +0000 autumnlove 245772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My neighbor is a runner and leaves his dirty socks, tank tops and shorts and shoes in a pile by his front door!
